Summary

Quantum Hughes doesn't know how long he's been trapped in a cyber noir world known as The Loop.

For each day that passes, Quantum adds an item to his inventory list, hoping that he'll one day be free.

Has it really been nearly 550 days? Has he gone mad? Will Quantum ever be free?

A surprise message from the real world sparks a series of events that Quantum could never have never imagined. Suddenly, he's facing off against killer invaders, fighting steam-powered robots, going toe-to-toe with dagger-wielding goblins, visiting floating realms, and even taming a mirrored dragon.

Through Quantum's trademark snark, his near bottomless inventory list of items (example: item 287, King Tut's dagger made from a meteorite; item 327, a Viking helmet with horns), there's no telling what he will do next, or how far Quantum will go to level up and solve a challenge.

About the series: Explore vast and unique fantasy MMORPG worlds in one of the original isekai GameLit series published between 2015-2018. The Feedback Loop is a portal fantasy series by Harmon Cooper, Amazon best-selling author of Pilgrim, Cowboy Necromancer, and Monster Hunt NYC. Fans of role playing games and everything from classic noir to high fantasy and fast-paced gamer action will love this new collection. Watched Boss Battle? You'll dig this. A fan of Sin City, Sword Art Online, The Punisher, Free Guy, or Ready Player One? This will scratch that itch. 

Quantum Hughes has always been one of narrator Jeff Hays' most beloved character voices. Volume 1 features Jeff's re-recording of the book that started it all. This new version captures a more developed Quantum voice, and takes advantage of better gear and mastering. Soundbooth Theater has also remastered Books 2 and 3, and recorded a bonus Feedback Loop short story and Quantum's inventory list, so even longtime fans will have a reason to pick this improved version up.

Grab it, and dive into The Loop!

Harmon + Jeff = a riotous good time

A true gem of a series, the characters, the world(s) building, the crazy action and the even crazier storyline, set in the digital dream world that is The Loop. The Feedback Loop is a none stop Cyberpunk, steampunk, noir thrill ride. Read by the man known as Jeff Hays. Quantum Hughes is a character he was born to play, In fact, some say he is Quantum. A mind blowing narration to match a mind blowing story from the true Father of American Litrpg.

Solid story to pass the time.

The dialog is really impressive in this book.
The overall plot is pretty average but the characters are pretty interesting and likable.
Id recommend this as a good listen.

Dystopian future as told by 1950's gangster.

[I received this product for free]

Harmon Cooper does a great job setting up the world and premise of Feedback Loop. The main character Quantum is the lens we see the world though and he is bitter and jaded on many things due to what he has been through.

The mix of Virtual Reality and real world works well and I didn't find myself wishing to see the other whilst exploring. the characters are varied and bounce off of Quantum in unique but sometimes predicable ways.

The worlds visited are varied and leave you wanting more and wishing you could play those worlds and explore them more.

Jeff Hays as narrator is perfect. He brings the characters to life making them recognizable and emotive. To the point by the ending of Book three I felt physical pain for the emotions the characters were going through.

I am looking forward to the set of 5-8 coming out next month!!

The Best Gamelit can Get

As my first foray into Gamelit this is still the best and now even better as the 4 book package. Before this was popular Cooper created a crazy ,realistic intriguing world that just made you jump up and notice. With the vocal talents of Jeff Hays which made me a massive fan this was the team up of all team ups and my only bad point was this was before SBT came into being as having this done with multiple narration would of been icing on the cake. Still my favourite series for this genre and how i became a fan of the genre so this comes with 6 stars and my wholly over appreciative gushing that if you don't try and like this then your in the wrong genre for you.

THE most entertained i've been

i can't remember the last time i've been so engrossed in an audiobook.
The production value is simply but, absolutely fantastic. The sheer range the narrator has would but anyone to shame.

Fantastic Narration, poor story.

Jeff Hayes is a fantastic narrator, bringing life to any character he embodies in an audiobook. His talent at making even lackluster stories engaging and fun to listen to is truly worthy of praise. Anyone reading this review i highly recommend you go listen to literally ANY other audiobook he has performed in than this one.

I say this because the main character in this story is deeply unlikable, sexist and childish. His behaviour is nothing short of pure cringe. I would have liked a book based on his personality before entering the loop as the hints you get at his previous self make that version sound infinitely more likable.

The writing of the fight scenes is a bit poor too but that is a minor point compared to the MC themselves.
